Gibralter Road and Other Road Closures

From the County of SB-

Good day and I hope everyone is doing well—

My name is Matt Dobberteen and I work for S.B. County Public Works.

I am writing to alert you of South Coast Road Closures currently in effect.

GIBRALTER ROAD

Gibralter Road is closed from West Mountain Drive through East Camino Cielo to Painted Cave .

This is due to a combination of extremely rough pavement and unstable slopes, particularly in the burn areas from our recent fire. A combination of debris coming off these slopes into the roadway and very rough pavement creates hazardous conditions for anyone who attempts to use this road.

For your own safety please stay off this Gibralter Road .

We will notify you when the road reopens for use. Our best estimate for lifting the “Closure” will be some time this summer. This is due to the time it will take to complete the necessary repairs and to allow the slopes to stabilize to an acceptable condition. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.

EAST CAMINO CIELO

East Camino Cielo is closed from Painted Cave Road to Gibraltar Road .

This is due to extremely rough pavement which creates hazardous conditions for anyone who attempts to use this road.

For your own safety please stay off East Camino Cielo.

We are attempting to complete repairs in February 2009 and will notify you when the road reopens for use. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.

If you have any questions, please write at this email address or call at 568-3576. RIDE SAFE!

Take Care-- Matt Dobberteen
